Hey all,

Maybe I'm slow but I just stumbled across a really fast way to "butter up" a
surface prior to applying a layup or micro so I thought I'd 'share'.  I used
to take a brush and paint on a thin layer of epoxy.  Using a brush, I got
the epoxy pretty thin but it took a while.  This morning I tried using a
plastic squeegee to spread out a thin layer of epoxy.  It worked great!
Super fast AND probably used 1/4 of the epoxy because I could get the layer
so thin.  Just another simple and twisted little gem that makes my life
complete!
